Does a Russian woman need money to depart from Russia?

by John

I met a Russian woman that says she has a ticket to fly to Phoenix to be with me. She says customs requires she has to have at least $700 U.S. money before they will let her leave Russia to the U.S.

Is this true, that they need money to fly here ?


Bob's Answer:

Hi, see:

- Does a Russian gal with a 90 day visa have to have $4500.00 before leaving to come to the USA?.

- Is there such a thing a proof of support money before being able to leave russia?

The amount in your case is different, but my answer is exactly the same. No, she does not need to show customs in Russia money to be allowed to depart.

Hope that helps...
